Blackout - Outdoor Puzzle Hunt

A powerful hacker group has taken down the city’s power grid, plunging everything into a full-scale blackout. Emergency reserves are collapsing fast, systems are failing one by one, and in just 120 minutes the entire city will shut down for good. Your team has been activated as the last line of defence — the only group capable of fighting back.

Armed with an iPad, an ActionPack, GPS, and your newly unlocked HACKING tools, you’ll embark on a 2 km mission through Hanmer Springs to uncover Power Nodes, track digital footprints, solve encrypted puzzles, and deal with rival agents who may either assist you… or sabotage your progress.

Augmented reality reveals hidden circuits, corrupted code, and digital anomalies woven into the real world, pulling you deeper into the high-tech crisis.

This mission carries a 4 out of 5 difficulty rating, offering a fast, intense challenge ideal for families with older kids, teens, and adults who love a clever, high-stakes adventure. 

Your mission:

• Activate all three Main Power Nodes

• Locate and restart the Secret Emergency Generator

• Shut down the hacker attack before the blackout becomes permanent

Fast. Intense. High-tech.
